Product Description
Product Description
Vinyl LP pressing includes download. 2012 album from the veteran Classic Rock duo, their first album of new music since Red Velvet Car in 2012. Fanatic was recorded in hotel rooms and studios up and down the West Coast, with Grammy-winning producer Ben Mink back at the helm with the Wilson sisters drawing from their own lives and personal experiences as inspiration for their music. 'Dear Old America' comes from memories of a military household and is written from the point of view of their father, a Marine Corps officer, returning from war. 'Rock Deep (Vancouver)' harkens back to the city where Dreamboat Annie was written and 'Walkin' Good' (a duet with Vancouver resident Sarah McLachlan) captures the joy of finding new life in a new love.

One is never sure what to expect from "rock acts from the late 70s/80s" but Heart has been a pleasant surprise. There recent comeback effort Blue Velvet showed that they still care to make good music (no lame predictable crap on it) and they let everybody know that they had returned to their roots - giving up on the polished commercial sound and the "big hair" they pursued in the mid 80s to early 90s. So this brings us to Fanatic, which contains some of their hardest rocking tunes in decades (with a few gentler tunes in the mix as is typical for any Heart record). Bottom line they still kick butt and I love it.

I've always been a big fan of Heart. "Fanatic" is a great rock album! Ann and Nancy Wilson are back... big time! Can't wait to see them on tour in 2013!

Still Kickin' It Out

Heart is Back !
After the disappointment of Red Velvet Car I was dubious when I purchased Fanatic. After listening to the CD there was the predictable DARK sound which is found on most Cd's these... Read more
